The films address issues of an urgent nature with global impact. There are special sessions for children, adolescents and educators. All sessions are free.<\/p>\n

According to the event’s founder and anthropologist, Ariane Porto, the themes of environmental and human rights are so many and so urgent, that the voices coming from all directions meet and sometimes clash. \u201dWe chose this year to honor “Liberdade.” Freedom to be, to be, to come. Freedom to stay, to rebuild, to resist, to change. Freedom of body, spirit, mind. And, fundamentally, freedom to live in a socially and environmentally sustainable world, where all species, human or not, have the right to exist\u201d, she writes on the event’s website.<\/p>\n

Free<\/strong><\/p>\n

Among the highlights is \u201cFrom trash to treasure\u201d (photo), a documentary directed by the Brazilian Iara Lee, which portrays a community in Lesotho, Africa, which transforms tons of garbage into everyday clothes and accessories. Another one in the spotlight is \u201cProfessor Polvo\u201d, a film that is included in the race for an Oscar statuette this year – in the Documentary category, available on Netflix. The catalog can be accessed on the event website through quick registration.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
